Hamlet's Choice: Hamlet, a Reformation Allegory

Abstract

Basing her conclusions of research into apocalyptic and Mariological imagery in Hamlet, Hoff offers a comphrensive solution to Hamelet's personal problems. The study includes an examination of the textual history and various biblical translations and word comparisons. The guide aims to convince through historical analysis that standard readings of "Hamlet" have missed a theological superstructure running throughout the play.
